Alright, pause the game just for a sec.

Games aren't just fun, it's more then that right?

They bring us together

whether in a workplace or on a stream

or at a convention.

At any given moment there are millions of people

like you and me, playing, chatting, adventuring,

dueling, adventuring, side questing, exploring!

Millions of real people.

Most of our gaming experience can be amazing.

But let's be honest, there are problems:

toxic corners of the community, abuse, harassment,

bullying, isolation, depression.

Behind the avatar on your screen a real person

may be suffering alone in silence.

It might be your friend, your kid, your co-worker,

or maybe that person is you.

Too often it feels like we're supposed to toughen up,

play on, get good.

But if someone is struggling, they don't need to get good,

they need to get help.

Whether you're a game developer, a fan,

a player, a streamer, a competitor,

any part of this community

if you need someone to talk to

the Games and Online Harassment Hotline

is here for you.

It's not about the person you think has it worse than you,

or the person you've heard stories about.

If you or someone you care about is struggling

no matter how bit or small it might feel
